crops that matured by the lst cay CT July,
have yielded large returns. Some feT
farmers have been experimenting with
Egyptian corn and Milo maize. TIE tsl-
lowing extract from the Dallas News will
show the demand that is arising for
white milling corn:
There is prevailing prejudice among
planters against white corn because i
will not yield SO largely nor sell SO well
as the yellow variety. The mills of this

Cattle Growers Association.

KANSAS CITY, Nov. 1.-The Consoli-
dated Cattle Growers association Of the
United States, assembled in annual
convention this afternoon. n. j. Cole
man, commissioner OF agriculture, ad-
dressed the convention. He said that
the cattle industry OF this country, re-
presenting twelve hundred millions Of
dollars, was under IA cloud Of misfortune
ut present, but he was satisfied that the
population of the country is increas-
ing far more rapidly than is ,he beef
supply, and that this circumstance
would rectify matters. He then pro.
ceeded to read semi,oilicial state
ment OF the work of his department in
fighting pleuro pneumonia. After
summarizing the appropriations and
authority given by congress to the
bureau, for the purpose Of the exter-
minating the plague, Coleman said
that he prepared IA series Of rules and
regulations which he sent to the gov
ernors OF the various states and terri
tories, with request that they
cooperate in observance of
them. Thirty-one states and
territories had responded and
promised their assistance. He
had also submitted to the state legis-
latures an act providing for state CO.
operation. This bill is the Brill law
in Virginia, New York and Illinois.
In regard to the actual work of the
department, he mentioned that Cook
county, Illinois, and number of
counties in New York and Maryland
had been placed in quarantine. A
circular had been issued to railroads,
asking their corporation, and he was
pleased to state that very effective as
sistance had been rendered by them.
From January 1st to October 18th of
the present year, the inspectors of the
bureau OF animal industry had exam
ined l2,655 herds, containing 92,69S
head Of cattle. OF these, 47S herds,
containing 1856 cattle, were placed in
special quarantine, and 1909 were
found to be diseased. This does not
include the Chicago quarantine.
Coleman, in saying the disease had
